[WT-support] ARRL FD 1D

[Bob Wilson, N6TV]

Thanks Laurent.  Since this rule change may only apply this year, it's
probably not worth making it a permanent change.

ARRL Field Day isn't a "real contest" -- there is no log checking per se.
You just upload a summary sheet and a list of calls worked on every band
(they will also accept Cabrillo).

See https://field-day.arrl.org/fdentry.php

However, you can certainly use the dev version to recalculate your score,
or perhaps you can temporarily change your entry class from 1D to 1E,
recalculate the score with the current Win-Test, then change it back.
Win-Test prompts you for the category every time you reload the log.  If it
loads automatically without prompting, just type REOPEN [Enter] in the
logging window, then click OK, then you'll get the pop-up prompt for entry
class.  But I haven't tried it.

73,
Bob, N6TV
